I’m glad you have that particular skill, but it absolutely has very little to do with irate customers. That’s more like what makes it a shitty day at the job vs having a shitty job.

Also idk how much variety of people you have had to meet in your career but I venture to guess they are all generally the same socioeconomic backgrounds, education, etc. When you work with the public it is different, the pool is larger and more random, you may learn new ways people can be fucking weird.

Controversial but when it actually IS essentially just “for spending money” part time work, is retail that bad? You have the psychological benefits of seeing new people, having consistent relationships, helping others, physical activity, a routine, and anything else that working may bring to your social calendar. Oh and waaaay less responsibility and pressure.

Cause it is essentially working for mental health reasons instead of financial. It is a lot easier to walk away then as soon as mental health is compromised!

The vague threat of “think of the children maybe being exposed to sexual things” challenging our first amendment right but it becomes some huge debate if a woman is being harassed/stalked/threatened online.

**they are justififying destroying our rights for their feelings **

Literally every fucking time. If it wasn’t DEI it would be Newsom or whatever else he can use to his benefit.

I haven’t been able to even* load* Facebook or X because of some privacy/security setting I must have enabled. Before that fb wouldn’t let me see anything without an account and X was pulling really similar stunts, requiring an account for full access, although usually you could read the tweet and a few replies maybe.

It is absolutely bullshit for ALL the information to be on a social media post. I’ve definitely gotten them before with age and suspect/vehicle or something, and Twitter would have photos and further details like last seen location and clothes.

THIS IS NOT THE ONION?!

And then there’s the mortgage on a 1.51mil house And the tax Not just the initial “buy house + reno so it’s an investment” wealth/security. Sure maybe you could save up the hundreds of thousands for a down payment

It’s just insane and as far as I see the only laws that give real relief or protection are for existing homeowners so good luck n00bs

You have to work the system to get the shot of when you fought the system

They do not send in SWAT for wellness checks

In a Nov. 18 letter filed in federal court, attorneys for The New York Times named Balaji as someone who had “unique and relevant documents” that would support their case against OpenAI. He was among at least 12 people — many of them past or present OpenAI employees — the newspaper had named in court filings as having material helpful to their case, ahead of depositions.

Unless stuff starts happening to those people, or there is some detail I missed in the article, it is much more plausible that this was suicide than some corporate hit, let alone one carried out using police violence? Is that what you were implying?

No offense but this is incredibly short sighted and you’re assuming the average person seeks out new information. We really don’t and are more exposed to it in our daily lives of consumption. In 5, 10, 15 years it will increasingly become a problem being cut off from the outside world. Even now many believe the propaganda

It Depends, thank you very much no further questions.

Lmao Wow thank you! What a dummy idk if I ever would have caught that!

Centrist?

He has no moral code beyond what benefits him most. Even centrists have ideals they somewhat stick to. Elon just believes in whatever benefits him most in the moment. I think it is like a character trait almost, he has a great instinct for how to make money with (other people’s) money. Kinda like the world class poker players. Doesn’t mean I admire them, or hold more weight to their opinions.

But people worship famous gamblers Why not someone who looks like they belong in middle stage of an Animorphs cover?

“What you actually have are violent drug zombies with dead eyes, and needles and human feces on the street.”

Yo this is the most cartoonish out-of-touch shit take I’ve see. In an election that accused a disenfranchised minority group of eating people’s pets!

My first thought when I saw the meme was more an Italian going ‘God No!! Why?!’

Because the microwave bowls are abominations. Don’t get me wrong I will eat them but they are awful starchy water+ powder that really nails that chemical je ne sais quoi

Even the Mac in pic is an awful sad example of a failed bowl

I do NOT get these things. They have creepy beady eyes an the nature of the product limits opportunity for details and distinction so they all look pretty generic! You might even NEED the box to tell you what it is. Soulless garbage being mass produced for landfills and seemed to outwear their welcome at least 5 years ago…

Hell yeah I’m posting this hoping more eyes stop to read your comment if they see a reply. Cuz fuck what ins is doing

Um no?

Don’t tell me if you knew the threat to democracy who had a personal vendetta against you and your child was following you in office and has threatened and made blind accusations multiple times that you would NOT pardon them. Biden did the right thing as a parent and a mildly objectionable thing on a moral standpoint politically which… just fuck off with that. I don’t wanna hear about morality from the party that constantly defends rapist and child abusers

You explained what I missed, duck penis. Thanks.

I’m still reading but ffs- I click ONE x.con source and my in app browser makes me hit back 5 times just to get to lemmy again nothing else pulls that shit but maybe daily news level
